The sun is beating down. The temperature has soared. Your skin feels like it’s melting. The dog days of summer are well and truly here. Have you ever wondered why they are called “dog days”? It originated in Roman times and refers to the star Sirius also known as the “Dog Star” and is the brightest star in the constellation during hot summer months.

We say, “Keep calm and carry on!” Don’t let the heat get to you or your skin. Our best advice? Please, please use a high SPF to protect skin and be sure to keep your skin clean and hydrated. Why? Because sunscreen and excess perspiration can clog your pores and the next thing you know, breakouts and pimples, whiteheads and blackheads begin to appear.

Clean skin will help prevent pimples, blemishes, and breakouts. If blemishes and pimples do occur, then take time to thoroughly cleanse your skin with EVOLOGIE® Stay Clear Cleanser. All EVOLOGIE® products contain our proprietary patent-pending YS3 COMPLEX®, a revolutionary delivery system that addresses the multiple causes and complications associated with pimples and blemishes.

The sun can also cause dry skin. When that happens tiny cracks may occur in pores and bacteria can get through the skins normal protective barrier. EVOLOGIE®’s YS3 COMPLEX® breaks through the barrier and delivers natural ingredients to where they are needed most including Arginine to replenish and hydrate skin, and Lycopene to help repair sun damage.

When breakouts do occur Medical Aesthetician, Paige Sacher, recommends EVOLOGIE® Intensive Blemish Serum to rapidly remove pimples and blemishes, and quickly clear up breakouts; and EVOLOGIE® Stay Clear Cream to help reduce further breakouts, and keep your skin hydrated.

Don’t let the dog days of summer get the better of you OR your skin!
